Rescue Of The Week: Daisy, a one-and-a-half-year-old terrier mix

Home At Last Dog Rescue is excited to introduce Daisy, a one-and-a-half-year-old terrier mix, as their featured rescue of the week.

Daisy came to Home At Last Dog Rescue from South Carolina as an owner surrendered her and is now recovering quickly after undergoing surgery on her left knee. Despite her recent procedure, Daisy’s playful spirit shines through; she is an active young pup who would thrive with an energetic family or household that enjoys staying busy.

She is house- and crate-trained, great with people, and loves her toys. As she’s still a puppy, Daisy will benefit from a patient owner who can provide gentle guidance as she continues to grow and learn. She can be selective with other dogs, so proper introductions are important.

If you are interested in adopting Daisy or would like more information, you can reach out to Home At Last Dog Rescue at [email protected] or visit www.homeatlastdogrescue.com.

Thanks for reading! See you next week. Be sure to follow Wiss Now on Facebook.
